Brown Deer: A Choctaw Warrior (Strong Choctaw Women #1)

Brown Deer is the first book of my new series entitled ‘Strong Choctaw Women’. In the past, I have written many heroines into my stories, but I have never written a whole series just about the courageous female Native Americans before. This series will be about what they had to endure and how they coped with it.
In the time-period holding true to the ones I have always loved to write my stories about; the Choctaw women had the most to contend with. Not only were they held back from what they wanted to do, they have to suffer all the torture from not only other tribes, but they also had the French, Spanish, and the British who only wanted to use and abuse them. I thought it was about time for them to have their stories told.
Although my stories are fiction, I do have many actual facts scattered throughout my books to help bring them to life and make them more interesting. They are all clean and Christian based.

In the mid-1700s, a young woman by the name of Issi Luskabi (Brown Deer) lived with her mother and father. Their village was in what was called the western district of the Choctaw territory. It was located near the Mississippi River Basin. Brown Deer realized everything about life as she knew it was continually changing, and she was not sure she liked it. The only thing she was sure of was the feeling deep in her spirit that she was supposed to be a warrior. However, her tribe forbids a woman from doing this.
Brown Deer’s true love had promised to teach her the warrior’s way if she would marry him. She agreed at once to do that. She trained hard and became a good warrior, but when tragedy strikes their small village, will she be the warrior she needs to be to help her people?
Read Brown Deer’s story to find out all the hardships she had to endure and how the emotional strain being the warrior she was supposed to be, almost ended her.
